Thanks for going to the trouble to report this, but this is working as intended 
since bool is a subclass of int.

[issue13853] SystemExit/sys.exit() doesn't print boolean argument

[Jon Brandvein]

New submission from Jon Brandvein jon.brandv...@gmail.com:

Raising SystemExit manually, or calling sys.exit, with an argument of True or 
False results in no output to the screen. According to 
Doc/library/exceptions.rst and Doc/library/sys.rst, any object that is not an 
integer or None should be printed to stderr.

Also, I'm not sure whether this is a bug, but raise SystemExit(None) differs 
from sys.exit(None), in that the former produces an exception with an args 
tuple of (None,), and the latter produces one with an empty args tuple.
